Either this pub pooch is waiting to play giant chess or he’s chilling at the quiz in The Sparkle Horse, Glasgow. It’s probably the latter isn’t it? We’ve not been to Scotland for a while so it’s great to be back up there! Thanks to Caoimhe for the photo!

There’s no danger of Peat – the pub whippet at The 13th Note, Glasgow, Scotland – not getting enough play. He takes his bed and toys to work with him! If only we could all do that! Thanks to Nicola for the photo!

One of the best, most welcoming, sights in a public house is the presence of a pub dog.

Lazing by an open fire. At the feet of their master. Bowl of water. Maybe a sneaky beer taster. Fresh from a walk. Snaffling round for rogue nuts and scratchings. Sniffing out recent canine visitors. Fussed over by other drinkers. Can I say hello to your dog? What his name? It is a he isn’t it?
